John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers influenced me to become a guitar maker over 50 years ago. I've still got a les paul pickguard that he kindly signed for me at a concert. He will be sadly missed. RIP

Watched him and the band playing so many times in my teenage years and he genuinely was my inspiration for learning the guitar. A great talent and truly the father of British Blues - he will be sorely missed. RIP John and thank you :(

Wow! This is the first I've heard of his death! Now, I should share my own personal "John Mayall Story!" I was working with a local Bluegrass/Country/Southern Rock band whose leader was a guy named Leon Poindexter back in 1977/78 in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. We were scheduled to open for a Mayall concert at the Sunshine Speedway racetrack the next day, but we were booked to play the Don Cesar (sp?) Hotel lounge on St. Petersburg Beach the night before. The stage was rather high and large, and a couple of sets in, I felt somebody tugging at my pant leg. Looking down, I saw a little guy beckoning for my attention. He asked if it would be okay if John Mayall came up and played one of my harmonicas? I said "sure" and passed the word to the rest of the band. I had no idea Mayall was staying at that high-end hotel that night! And then, the great man himself stepped up. He looked in my case, which held 12 diatonic harmonicas, mostly Hohner Golden Melodies and a few old Marine Bands. He then declared that he didn't like the "plastic" Golden Melodies and preferred to play the "wooden" Marine Bands. He chose one in Bb and my band launched into a blues tune in the corresponding key. I went and sat down in the crowd and listened to one of my early harmonica idols play one of my harps for the rest of the set. Great memory! "Brute" Bruttomesso

RIP and thanks for the years of great music, it’s gotten me through both the best and worst of times. Was fortunate enough to meet him once after a show out 6 or 7 years ago, and he was such a gentleman and a gracious with his time. Total class act.

What a real bummer this is Mark. I remember my friend's brother, they lived across the street from me back in the early '70s (70/71-ish?) telling me that I had to listen to JM and the Bluesbreakers. That was the first I had heard of them. I've been listening to the "Live In 1967" albums lately with Peter Green. Great albums. He certainly was "The Godfather of British Blues". R.I.P. John and thanks for all the great music you made. On a related note Mark, really loved your playing behind the video. Beautifully done and quite fitting! Cheers, Matt

Haha well, nice work, mate. Your encyclopedic knowledge of the guitar vocabulary of this tradition, especially the work of Clapton and Taylor, had me thinking it was a version of some deep cut I had never heard before. The vibe was authentic, very Bluesbreakers; my reaction to hearing it was “this sort of sounds like Eric, but it’s definitely not.” Love your channel and your deep and careful study of golden-age Bluesbreakers guitar.

Hi Jeff, All the audio in the videos (with the exception of where I demo that 3-in-1 amp and a few guitars) are made in Garageband, plugging directly into the computer via a box.
